Highway 191
I want to travel 191 from Moab straight down to I-10 with a motorhome towing a vehicle. Motorhome is 12'10" high and total length including towed is 55'. Is this possible. Also are there any rv park...

Not to encourage you to run 191 south of Alpine because there is a tunnel clearance problem in the Morenci area, but we've been doing it for many years with a 34 foot Class A - - though we are only 11 foot 4 inch high.
There is a 400 foot long tunnel with a marked clearance of 12-7. It has a curved "roof" so that clearance would be on the outer side of the lanes.
And a short underpass in the area marked 15-0.
Down in that same area there is also a 40 foot truck restriction - which could be overcome by driving a tow vehicle through that short area if a person were so inclined.
As I guess one could assume I don't think all the dire warnings about that stretch of road are justified. It's a long lonely road with basically no traffic and great views.
